Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is a genetically diverse Andean crop that has earned
special attention worldwide due to its nutritional and health benefits and its ability to adapt to …

Starch is a significant store of sugars, and the starch-sugar interconversion in source and
sink tissues plays a profound physiological role in all plants. In this review, we discuss how …

In the face of diminishing fresh water resources and increasing soil salinisation it is relevant
to evaluate the potential of halophytic plant species to be cultivated in arid and semi-arid …

Plants are autotrophic and photosynthetic organisms that both produce and consume
sugars. Soluble sugars are highly sensitive to environmental stresses, which act on the …

Ionic and osmotic relations in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) were studied by
exposing plants to six salinity levels (0–500 mM NaCl range) for 70 d. Salt stress was …

Contamination of agricultural soil by arsenic (As) is a serious menace to environmental
safety and global food security. Symbiotic plant–microbe interaction, such as arbuscular …

Quinoa is regarded as a highly salt tolerant halophyte crop, of great potential for cultivation
on saline areas around the world. Fourteen quinoa genotypes of different geographical …

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an ancient Andean crop that produces edible seeds
and leaves. Quinoa's tolerance to salinity and other types of abiotic stresses provides it with …
